Answer:
y = 5/7 x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1
The slope of the given function is -7/5
Let the slope of the required function be m
m * -7/5 = -1
7/5 m = 1
7 = 5m
m = 5/7
The slope of the line perpendicular to the line is 5/7
The required equation (using any value of the y-intercept) is expressed as;
y = 5/7 x - 6
Note that the y-intercept value was assumed and any value can be used
The parallel lines have the same slope.
The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
m - a slope.
We have 6x + y = 4 |subtract 6x from both sides
y = -6x + 4 → m = -6.
The slope-point form:
We have m = -6 and (-2, 3).
Substitute:
<h3>Answer: 6x + y = -9.</h3>
